BitReader v1.4.3
v1.4.3 Full Release of github.com/pektezol/bitreader
The simplest bit reader with big/little-endian support for Golang.
- Changed the TryRead functions to specify signed and unsigned versions. (Breaks major release, but no one cares lol)
- Changed constructor function name to NewReader, also added NewReaderFromBytes to construct with a byte slice.
- Changed ReadStringLen to ReadStringLength, its 2023, don't be concise(?)
- Changed the Reader type name from ReaderType to Reader.
- Changed Reader type's field names to be less concise.
- Changed TryReadString and TryReadStringLength to panic when there's an error.
- Changed ReadString and ReadStringLength to properly read unicode text.
- Added new function: Fork, which copies the reader with all of its properties.
- Added new function: ReadRemainingBits, which returns the total number of bits left in the stream, without messing with it. (Done via Forking)
- Fixed bug where SkipBits didn't work as intended for bits < 8. Previously, it prematurely returned an EOF.
- Fixed being able to enter negative bit numbers in the function parameters.
- Reworked unit tests for new and changed functions. Currently has an %83.6 coverage.
Breaks the major version, but will release this in a minor version. What are you going to do about it?
